? unfinished screws that someone started by turning on a lathe

The dogleg pieces almost look like unfinished LC cocking lever, but they aren't long enough

Mops for cleaning bores. That was the easy one.

Bill, to what purpose do you attribute the polished steel ball on one end?

I was thinking unfinished screws too Keavin.

The dogleg pieces look to me like the early offset firing pins.

I've been looking through my vintage gun cleaning implement images, without a match.

Cleaners in the 1892 “Sportsman’s Directory”: Ferris, Tomlinson, Epop, Budd-Eason
https://books.google.com/books?id=AE...AAJ&pg=PR8&lpg

In that the stuff is with a back-action Lifter, they could be much older than 1892

I'm also no help with the pins/punches or dog-leg thingies
